FTN Episode 511 – NEW Imperial Agents Reveal – Detachment Breakdown

Allies are a tricky subject for a lot of players – this new book will break the doors open on what is possible for Imperial Forces but also brings a whole new Imperial dimension in and of itself.  There is some powerful stuff in this dex but is it on the right frame?  We dive into the detachments.

Hey folks,

Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast members of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

We also started a Patreon for the FTN show.  This will help us a lot in the form of being able to hire an editor and a few other things.   If it is anywhere within your ability to support us on that platform please consider doing so. The link is right here.

We mostly tackle the new Detachments from the upcoming Imperial Agents Codex.  There is some really nice stuff in there. There are overlapping rules that incentivize you to take the detachment and the corresponding units assigned to it but there are also very powerful abilities on the units themselves.  We talk about the tricks and Stratagems available to each Detachment and the Detachment special rule.

I’m pleased to say we have a link for the official Warhammer Merchandise Store!  Check out our link here if you plan on picking up something!

Red says his favorite is the Imperialis Fleet.   I think my favorite is the Purgation Force.  This codex borrows from some other factions to ‘hang it all together’ and seems like a nice way to include these models in your collection even if you don’t want to flesh out a full 2000 point force.

In the half we talk about our time at Gen Con.  Enjoy!

Forge the Narrative is mostly a Warhammer 40k Podcast. Each episode is about an hour long. This ideally gives you something neat to listen to on your way to work, or on the way back home. Maybe you can even listen while you are painting or modeling!

Please follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook!

FTN mostly focuses on 40k, but again you will see in the first few episodes we take a severe deep dive into nerdom. These have been a blast to record and I hope they help pass the time for you. We are now on Pandora!! If you’re looking for another place to listen or you’ve shifted to that platform you can find us there.
